Re: Most over-rated and under-rated players
i wouldn't say crouch is worth 15 mill but he is definetly under rated...when we played him last season, he scored almost every time he came on. he destroyed arsenal last season and is under rated

I don't think he scored when he came on as a sub all season. (I could check but can't be bothered)
Re: Most over-rated and under-rated players
Bit harsh to say Wes Brown is over-rated, he gets to praise yet he did his job well this season.

Re: Most over-rated and under-rated players
Santa Cruz, Alex, Barry, Eduardo and Pirlo and under-rated.
Terry, Van Persie and adebayor.
While with crouch, he's hopeless. 15 million for a tall twig is a rip off.
Also Kewell and Viduka are way over-rated by the australian public due to the fact they no nothing about soccer.

Re: Most over-rated and under-rated players
So you think he is worth 35million pounds then?
And consider his international since euro 04
therefore - you are overrated!

Was it 15 mill (i can't remember)? if so, then by definition, he is OVER rated by your own admission.
Things I am owed because they're too tight to pay up:
Colossus: One House
Costa: One Lunch
Oh and add in
Colossus: one photo and one letter from his "attorney".

Re: Most over-rated and under-rated players
under-rated: Jasskelinen, Green (should be england number1), Nolan, Parker (when not injured), J.cole, Diaby, Kalou.
Over-rated - SWP, lennon, malbranque.
more to come...

Re: Most over-rated and under-rated players
Tevez isn't over-rated, if anything he's underated.
He's a very useful player, and has done well in his first season for Utd...
I think they're willing to pay up to 30m to get him permanently now aren't they?

Re: Most over-rated and under-rated players
i know tevez is good..i think he is a machine but i am just saying that there was so much hype on him for man u and i expected him to score so many more goals especailly if he is worth 30 mill..he will probably get 15+ goals this season but last year i think he was slightly over ratedGerrard_of_SA wrote:Tevez isn't over-rated, if anything he's underated.

Re: Most over-rated and under-rated players
Riquelme is very underrated
based just on footballing ability, he is in the top 5 players in the world

Bent is under rated, no i'm not saying he is worth 16 mill, i'm saying most people think he is shit because of one season with Spurs.
Joe Cole is under rated, Malouda is over rated

so a player that help a team to win the title but score less goal than u expect is overrated ?? (I know ronaldo is the man who win us the title last season, but pls review back the stats from the internet how many crucial goal tevez scored for us last season) !!

Re: Most over-rated and under-rated players
So true, he is a class player and should be respected more highly. It's maybe because he doesn't play International games for Argentina anymore, to take care of his sick mum.ronaldo07 wrote:saka_tha_blak_flash wrote:Juan Roman Riquelme.... SOOO UNDER-RATED!!!
